Atlantic City reports that University of Minnesota scientists describe a new blood test to detect antibodies against polio and to diagnose polio in susceptible children before symptoms. Using cancer cell lines, the test shows whether Salk vaccine induces protection against one or all three polio types, by comparing growth of virus in tubes with patient serum. Jonas Salk’s vaccine will be administered to up to one million children this spring for protection assessment.
